Ubuntu GNOME Might Fail To Do A 14.04 LTS Release

The Ubuntu GNOME distribution that packages up the latest GNOME Shell 3 desktop environment atop Ubuntu Linux is already conceding they are low on resources and might be incapable of doing a 14.04 LTS release come next spring

From Phoronix:

In response to a call-for-help back in October, there were plenty of Ubuntu GNOME users advocating their support and interest in this flavor of Ubuntu over the default spin with the Unity desktop, but few stepped up to actually help. It's a big problem among other open-source projects too.

One of the Ubuntu GNOME contributors wrote a mailing list post yesterday acknowledging there were only a few active people helping out Ubuntu GNOME. If more people don't step up, they will have to cancel their plans in making a Long-Term Support release out of Ubuntu 14.04 in April.
